Mcrae was better all along.Howard was just bigger.

McRae was great, no doubt. You don’t get picked in the 1st round if you aren’t great. He didn’t really stand out to me in HS though, but I was kinda young. Richard could’ve been an animal, but for whatever reason wasn’t very aggressive on the field. He just didn’t have that mindset out there.

Apart from CM though, that’s where the comparisons stop between players among the 2 schools. I’ll be waiting for you to bring up slow a$& Larry Seivers though. Those 2 are Clinton’s claim to fame. He did get drafted though, but we both know he’d be lucky to be a water boy in today’s game. Just being honest. Was good in his day though.

RWR!

Ha. One of my favorite Mark Twain quotes was;

“If you don’t read the newspaper, you’re uninformed. If you do read the newspaper, you’re misinformed.”

He was a witty fella.

I laughed at this dude with no dog in the fight.You dont have to buy anything thats free.O.r. has the largest enrollment and should win more than once in 30 years.Maybe they will and you can use my new logo.Or if not.

Not as hard as I laughed at Clinton’s team when I saw them. I’ve seen middle school teams bigger, faster and better than that group of misfits :roflol:

Oak Ridge will play hard and be very well coached. But Summit is legit, and also very well coached for the most part. 

So was Knox West and South Doyle. I don't have a dog in the fight, have a high opinion of both coaches, but if you represent East TN in the 5A title game, you were in some scrapes

    • Winfree's senior year was the season she needed to secure more college interest. That opportunity was taken away from her. A lot of false assumptions can be made about what happened and what the options are. Unfortunately, the former coach and administration did not allow Winfree to have due process. A lawsuit was filed for a reason, and it will run its course by people who conduct discovery and take depositions. Unless the parties settle out of court, a lot of the pertinent issues will come to the public surface. I wrote about many of the issues here: https://bdnewsletter.news/2023/11/17/grounds-for-investigation-and-suspension/ I interviewed Winfree after she was dismissed from the team and wrote about it here: https://bdnewsletter.news/2023/12/01/a-new-interview-with-sable-winfree/ Winfree had been on teams in Warren County since the fourth grade and never been dismissed from a team. The real questions are why was Winfree dismissed from the team, and why the administration backed a coach whom they did not rehire.
    • What is the hold up here? I have not heard anything in weeks. Are they waiting for the right person or is something else going on?
    • Per usual, we'll be hard to beat in the regular season, I'm sure. It's the post season that I'm more worried about, specifically the coaches. Maybe they'll be able to make some adjustments that will keep the momentum in our favor. How's Grays recovery coming along?
    • Something don’t add up here a college coach is not going to turn away a good player they need just because they didn’t get along with their high school coach 
    • RR, you might remember. Didn’t someone hide the kicking shoe that game? It seems I remember we had missed a kick the week before, and we needed all the points we could get. We thought we had a better chance going for two, so $?&@$ hid the shoe after the first miss that game. No one on our sideline looked for it very hard.
